I have a new blog post out on Doom Eternal. You know, Doom Eternal. That thing everyone played back when that thing happened where everyone had to stay indoors for ages and pretend like that wasn't something they did anyway. It was called "Youtuber's Guide To Writing Easy Unfunny Jokes."

Anyway, the post is on my site. Here's the link:

Er, it's been a while. I basically stopped using social media and don't really regret it.

But I wanted to come back to post an announcement that I have a site now, and that site has a blog. I've had a blog on tumblr for a good while, but I finally got around to putting the blog on my own database now, and I'm honestly thrilled. I may or may not remember to post updates here from now on, whenever I make a new post there.

Look at this link! So cool!!!!

We're at Gamescom! Well, at least kind of.

If you stop by the Opera GX booth, you'll find an arcade machine loaded with a game we developed exclusively for this event. You might even earn some small prizes if you manage to get far enough!

@foone Based on some info in the debug menu and the dev diaries, the different colours are used to create visible seams for the edge detection shader on the surfaces without the need for modeling those details

Man, it'd be nice to use social media if I didn't completely hate the fundamental concept behind all of the modern platforms.

Looking for a change of pace?

Operius DX will introduce a brand new mode where all you need to do is to rely on your reflexes to avoid obstacles. There are no enemies to shoot in this one!

Warning: It gets pretty intense!
